Comment:

 Yes, exactly.  The only thing I hadn't thought of is the new
 edit_less_capable_users role.  Is there a benifit to making a seperate
 role as opposed to using the existing edit_users role?  Administrators
 usually have all capabilities, but this might not always be the case.
 Then again, if you give someone edit_users as it stands (not filtered like
 edit_less_capable_users), they can pretty much gain all capabilities
 anyways.  It would be trivial to add the edit_less_capable_users
 capability, but I think it might be redundant.  Thoughts?
